Poker glossary:
- FULL OF - Describes a full house. "Fives full of queens" is 5-5-5-Q-Q.
- FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
- MANIAC - A player who bets, raises and reraises without regard to the quality of his hand. Most often found in flop games.
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
- MUCK - [1] A collection of face-down cards near the dealer composed of discards, i.e., folded hands, burns and discards for drawing purposes. [2] To throw one's cards into the muck, thus folding.
- RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
